Vegas Vacation Page #5

Synopsis: When Clark Griswold puts his mind to something, we soon realize he hasn't got one. Still, nothing stops him when the vacation bug hits. This time, he's chosen Las Vegas, the new family entertainment capital of America! Chevy Chase returns as bubbly, bumbling Clark in Vegas Vacation, a jokers-are-wild laugh fest including two other stars from past Vacations. Beverly D'Angelo is back as wife Ellen, doting on the guy she calls "Sparky," and Randy Quaid again delights as grubby goof ball Cousin Eddie. Ethan Embry (That Thing You Do!) and screen-debuting Marisol Nichols are Griswold teens who love the round-the-clock nightlife - as long as they don't share it with Mom and Dad! From Seigfried and Roy's extravaganza to a Hoover Dam tour, from cruising to losing (Wallace Shawn as a shifty blackjack dealer) to amorous crooning (Wayne Newton falls for Ellen): watch Clark try to keep family and wallet together!

But it's beautiful.

They really know how to treat

their high rollers around here.

Okay, kids...

inspection in five minutes.

You heard him! Move it!

Wayne Newton just happens to be

one of America's greatest entertainers.

He has an effect on women.

Yes, Griswold, Griswold.

Right this way, sir.

Here...

make the seats good.

No gratuity is necessary, sir.

- No, really. Keep it.

- Follow me.

We're in the front row.

I tipped him.

What energy!

Thank you.

You're a magical group of people.

And, Greg...

Give me some birds. Let me hear birds.

Mrs. Ellen Griswold.

Ellen, huh?

Holy crap,

Wayne Newton's hitting on Mom.

It's all part of the act.

Now you.

I think we know who sent the dress.

You're lucky.

I've been to every Wayne show

for the last 15 years.

I've never seen him do anything like this.

I'm just saying I've never heard you

hit those notes before.

Don't worry.

You have nothing to fear

from Wayne Newton. He's...

unattainable.

Did you see him staring at...

Watch your mouth.

I think I'll go upstairs and take a bath.

Not me.

Anyone for craps?

We're too young, remember?

I remember when I was too young.

Here.

Take $20.

If you need me...

I'll be rolling the dice.

Have fun, kids.

- Have a nice night.

- See you later.

Daddy wants a seven! Let's go, seven!

Seven! A winner!

Place your bets. Lucky roller coming out.

Place your bets.

Let go of me! Let go of me!

There he is. Clark!

See, I told you.

Look out, don't hurt me now.

Nice place for a pearl necklace.

Do you know this person?

Hi, Clark Griswold. Nice to meet you.

Have you ever swam with dolphins?

Them things is hard to catch.

Twelve. Craps. A loser.

Has anyone ever told you before...

you're bad luck?

Those were my mother's dying words.

But when you got your body

covered in third-degree burns...

and your foot's in a bear trap,

you start talking crazy.

I've run out of money.

Do you cash checks?

Only if you're staying at the hotel.

Indeed I am.

There we are.

No problem.

Good luck.

Look, Clark, if you're...

thinking about buying me

a Cadillac, forget it.

I won't take it.

I'm just trying to get even.

Now where can I do the most damage?

Shrimp cocktail, 29 cents.

Foxy boxing.

Fake IDs.

How'd you know?

When I was your age they needed

a water cannon to keep me away...

from the girls down at the Paramount.

$10. $10! $10!

Shrimp, ladies.

I need the $10.

Here.

Have a good evening, Mr. Morris.

Whatever.

- Another 21!

- You nailed her there.

Let's see. House has 14, and house busts.

Oh, boy!

Wendy, you are my lucky charm.

I don't know what's wrong

with me tonight.

You're rolling.

Good luck, everybody.

Good luck, everybody!
